Extract:

"In music in the modern period there is much more clearly a sense in which the importance of the particular mode of articulation in question lies precisely in the way in which it gives both producer and listener an individual role which can never be fully amenable to analysis in terms of identity with dominant rules. Adorno's suggestion that even music in de modern age can end up using the same dominant mode of rational identification which negates individual meaning (...) has now been overtaken by other historical developments and revealed as an unneccesarily limiting view of music and modernity." (p. 83)

Extract:

"Philosophy and music stood in an antagonistic but intimate relation. Because music was the exemplary language of pure expression but of no concept, and philosophy that of pure concept but no expression, each yearned, as if seeking a (Goethean) affinity, for what the other had - rational articulation for the one, and expression for the other. In their productive but troubled yearning they jointly tracked the historical course of modernity." (p. 25)

Extract:

"The crisis of music, which needs no introduction, does not have to do merely with the difficulties of consistent and meaningful form-creation, not merely with the commercial hardening and leveling of musical life, not merely with the rupture between autonomous production and the public. Instead, all this has accumulated to the point where quantity is translated into quality." (p. 135)
